You are too sleazy and dishonest to admit it is a proxy war being conducted by FJB's puppet-masters.
How many bajillions of US taxpayer dollars/materiel has FJB sent to them so far?
How long would the war have lasted without those bajillions of US taxpayer dollars/materiel?
No-one is denying its a proxy war. What people are denying are your dishonest and flimsy excuses for the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
You are too:
a. dishonest
b. dull-witted
c. both a and b
to respond to my point, that you lied when you said Russia's invasion was made to pre-empt an Ukrainian invasion, so instead you change the subject. I'm going with "a".
